Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plasterboard wall structure. More particularly, the invention provides means for securely supporting one or more water faucets in such a wall structure.
  • Plasterboard sometimes referred to as gypsum board, provides a convenient, labor-saving way of erecting internal building partitions which are ready for painting after merely applying putty-glue to the joints and over screw heads.
  • Plasterboards are available in large sheets and so make possible the fast construction of non-load carrying walls and ceilings.
  • Galvanized steel rolled or press-produced channels or angles are used as a support structure, the plasterboard being attached to one or both sides of such structure by self-tapping screws.
  • Service conduits such as electric cables, communication cables and water and drainage pipes are easily routed to any required location between parallel sheets of plasterboard.
  • the material is easily saw-cut to form apertures for the installation of electric sockets and light switches.
  • the present invention achieves the above objects by providing a faucet support structure for use in combination with a plasterboard wall.
  • the structure comprises a pair of spaced-apart metal strips attachable to the wall, and at least one hollow substantially L-shaped housing mounted between the strips for mounting a faucet therein.
  • the housing has a first opening projecting through one of the strips for insertion therein of the faucet, and a second opening having an axis extending between the strips for insertion therethrough of a water supply pipe.
  • a structure further provided with a pipe gripper arm attached adjacent to each L-shaped housing.
  • the arm is provided with a clamping device substantially alineable to the axis of the second opening between the strips for engagement of a water supply pipe to be connected to the faucet.
  • the structure of the present invention serves to secure the faucet even under conditions of moisture which can obviously be expected due to splashing and leakage.
  • the faucet is supported in a plastic housing which in turn is supported between metal strips, these being adequately large enough to resist any forces, in use or during replacement, to which the faucet may be subjected.
  • the faucets themselves can optionally be factory pre-assembled to the structure and thus effect a further saving of on-site labor.
  • the structure of the present invention can be screwed directly to the plasterboard, but even better structural integrity is achieved by its attachment to the light metal structure supporting the plasterboard.
  • the structure is particularly suitable for use in conjunction with plastic water supply piping.
  • FIG. 1 There is seen in FIG. 1 a faucet support structure 10 for use in combination with a plasterboard wall 12.
  • the structure 10 is based on front and rear spaced-apart metal strips 14, 16, in this embodiment spaced apart by a pair of sheet metal U brackets 18.
  • the strips 14, 16 are attachable to the wall 12.
  • the strips 14, 16, suitably made of galvanized steel sheet, can be screwed directly to the plasterboard 20. However advantageously they are sufficiently long when horizontally disposed for interconnection to two adjacent vertical metal posts 22, only one of which is seen, supporting the plasterboard 20, thus providing improved anchoring.
  • the housing 24 has a first opening 28 projecting through the front strip 14 and is sufficiently large for insertion therein of part of the faucet body 26.
  • a second opening 30 has an axis AA extending between the strips 14, 16 for insertion therethrough of a water supply pipe 32, which is attached to the faucet body 26.
  • the pipe 32 is made of a plastic, such as crosslinked polyethylene, and provides negligible mechanical support to the faucet body 26.
  • FIG. 2 there is seen a similar structure, 34 wherein two housings 24 are mounted therein and are spaced apart along strips 33, 35 to accept hot and cold-water faucets 36, 38.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a structure 40 similar to that seen in FIG. 2. There is further provided a pipe gripper arm 42 attached adjacent to the L-shaped housing 24.
  • the arm 42 is provided with a clamping device 44, such as a screw tightened conduit clip, substantially alineable to the axis AA of the housing second opening 46, between strips 48, 50.
  • a clamping device 44 such as a screw tightened conduit clip
  • the clamping device 44 is used for engagement of the water supply pipe 32 to be connected to the faucet body 36.
  • the clamping device 44 may be made a little larger for engagement of a conduit 48 covering the water supply pipe 32. In either case, the clamping device prevents inadvertent disconnection of the pipe 32 from the faucet body 36.
  • the arm 42 is held by the same screw 52 serving to hold the housing 24 to the rear strip 50.
  • FIG. 4 Seen in FIG. 4 is a detail of a housing 54 for use in the structure.
  • Housing 54 comprises a pair of matching hollow halves 56, 58 which are configured to be interlocked after insertion therebetween an adapter mounted therein to which the faucet body 26 seen in FIG. 1, is connected. Said adapter is secured within housing 54 by nut 62.
  • First opening 60 is configured with whatever is necessary, in this embodiment containing a pair of captive nuts 62, for securing the particular type and size of faucet to be used, or an adapter.
